Dutch Bros cold brews are the perfect treat for a hot summer day.

You can’t go wrong by ordering their classic Cold Brew, but most people like to spice things up - or rather, cool things down - with a specialty cold brew drink from this coffee chain.

There are so many Dutch Bros cold brew options to try that will satisfy your caffeine craving, and even your sweet tooth.

Keep reading to learn about the best cold brew coffee items to order from a Dutch Bros location.[1]

Take a look at the official Dutch Bros website, and you'll notice that there are only a handful of cold brew drinks to choose from.

Right now, the official list only includes the Caramelizer, the White Mocha, the Kicker, and the Annihilator.[2]

In reality, Dutch Bros offers a wide variety when it comes to cold brew coffee drinks - you just need to know how to order them.

Of course, you can go with a classic menu item, but just know that there's a lot more where that came from.

In this list, I’ll cover the 15 most popular cold brews to order at Dutch Bros, including several options that aren’t listed on the official menu.

Dutch Bros Iced Coffee Vs Cold Brew Vs Nitro Cold Brew

Because they’re all cold and served over ice, it’s easy to assume that iced coffee, cold brew, and nitro cold brew are basically the same beverage.

That’s not actually the case.

Iced

Dutch Bros iced coffee drinks are the most basic of cold coffee options. It’s brewed the traditional way using hot water, and the brewed coffee is then poured over ice.

It tastes a lot like standard drip coffee, which is slightly bitter and acidic, but it may be diluted due to the heat and ice combo.

Cold Brew

Cold brew coffee, on the other hand, is much smoother in taste thanks to the slow-and-steady brewing process.

With cold brews, the coffee grounds are steeped in cold or room-temperature water for 12 to 24 hours.

For this reason, it tends to have more caffeine than iced coffee.

Nitrogen Cold Brew

Compared to regular cold brew, nitro cold brew is slightly fizzy, much like a draft beer from a keg.

It's made by putting the cold brew base into a key and infusing it with nitrogen.

This results in a richer, smoother, creamier cold coffee drink.

Nitro Brew and Cold Brew
